Mathematics

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option B</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it's a geometric sequence, to find the common ratio divide the previous term by the next term.

That's

<h3>\frac{48}{ - 96}  =  -  \frac{1}{2}</h3>

And also

<h3>\frac{ - 24}{48}  =  -  \frac{1}{2}</h3>

<h3>\frac{12}{ - 24}  =   - \frac{ 1}{2}</h3>

Also

<h3>\frac{ - 6}{12}  =  -  \frac{1}{2}</h3>

Since the common ratio is the same for any of the terms chosen the common ratio of the sequence is

<h2>-  \frac{1}{2}</h2>

Hope this helps you

Answer:

B. -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio is the ratio between two numbers next to each other To find the common ratio, divide a term by the preceding term.

For example, if the term is 48, divide by -96.

48/-96 = -1/2

Another example, if the term is -24, divide by 48.

-24/48= -1/2

Let’s try one more example. If the term is 12, divide by -24

12/-24= -1/2

Therefore, the common ratio is 1/2 and the correct answer is B.

jeka94

Answer:

The first partner will receive $52950, the second partner will receive $35300, the third partner will receive $88250.

Step-by-step explanation:

The profits in the business are to be shared by the three partners in the ratio of 3 to 2 to 5, in that order.

That is:

3 : 2 : 5

The profit for the year was $176,500.

To find the number of dollars that each partner, we have to first find the total ratio and then divide each of the ratios by the total ratio and multiply by the profit.

The total ratio is:

3 + 2 + 5 = 10

The first partner will receive 3/10 of the profits:

\frac{3}{10} * 176500 = $52950

The second partner will receive 2/10 of the profits:

\frac{2}{10} * 176500 = $35300

The third partner will receive 5/10 of the profits:

\frac{5}{10} * 176500 = $88250

The first partner will receive $52950, the second partner will receive $35300, the third partner will receive $88250.
